Anti-UGP1 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the UGP1 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the UGP2 gene, which encodes UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase 2. This protein is known to function in brain development and carbohydrate metabolism and homeostasis, among other biological roles. The human version of UGP1 has a canonical amino acid length of 508 residues and a protein mass of 56.9 kilodaltons, although 2 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the cytoplasm of cells and notably expressed in the testis, skin, skeletal muscle, liver, and heart muscle. Other names for this target antigen include DEE83, EIEE83, and SVUGP2. A number of UGP1 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
